Many thanks for checking out my photos, please feel free to give feedback! My wanderings in nature and observations of birds, particularly raptors, is what gives me great joy and constantly reminds me of the beauty and strength of life. My favourites are raptors, I love their freedom, grace, ruthlessness, pride, adaptability and flexibility and I learn much about parenting, protection and blind faith from them.Please feel free to check out my website:www.byronbaybackyard.com.au

Hi Deb, You got me this time. Never picked this as one of yours. No talons. Brolga’s are hard to photograph and when you do get close enough they seem to be a colour that the camera doesn’t like. Hard to get good detail.
